Dream in Flowers


Here's one of my March inspiration pieces for Gecko Galz.  All stamps used were from the Gecko Galz In My the Garden digital stamp set.   Looks like Spring, doesn't it?



In my printing program, I layered IMG10 with IMG3.  I also printed IMG15 twice and cropped the sentiment from from IMG19. The main images were colored lightly with Copics and fussy cut.  I carefully tore around the the music part of the stamp and inked that area with Frayed Burlap Distress.  I fussy cut the two butterflies from IMG15 and attached them at the bodies only on top.
  

Here's the dimensional shot.  I layered a 6x6" square card with very old DP from my stash, tucking lace tape from Decollections under the DP edges before gluing it down.  The images were raised with adhesive foam at an angle and I added some ribbon snippets and a floral cameo from WeR Memory Keepers in the top corner.  I distressed the sentiment with the edge of my scissors and inked it with Frayed Burlap before popping it top left.  I balanced it out with 3 adhesive pearls in the bottom right corner.

I'm entering this in the Crafty Boots Spring Challenge, the Deep Ocean Vintage Challenge, Fan-tastic Tuesday ATG/Make it Square, Going Grey With Scrap Creations Pastels, TTRCD March 17-23 ATG, Card Mania Spring, the Cheerful Stamp Pad In the Garden, Through the Purple Haze for Your Mum or Special Woman, Robin's Fetish Purple and Green, Pile it On Use 3 of Something (3 pearls) and OSAAT ATG with Women.
